Review Quotes:
"Wexler is an able builder of magical worlds and creatures, with labyrinths, an enchanted library, and a feisty, swashbuckling heroine at the center. A story rich in action and allegory--fantasy fans will want to hang on for what comes next."--Kirkus
"Full of action and adventure, this tale will enthrall fans of the first novel."--School Library Journal"With an original concept, a brave and spirited heroine, and tantalizing incipient relationships among the apprentices (including Alice's hot-and-cold friendship with Isaac, who tricked her in the first volume), Wexler's series grows stronger by the book."--Horn Book
Praise for The Forbidden Library
"Working in the grand tradition of children's fantasy, Wexler's off to a promising start."--Kirkus
